The eruption at Litli-Hrútur began in the summer of 2023 on the Reykjanes Peninsula and was part of an ongoing volcanic episode following extended seismic activity in the area. The eruption occurred in a remote location and caused no damage to infrastructure.
The activity was characterized by a fissure eruption, with lava flowing steadily from the vent and forming new lava fields. The eruption attracted widespread attention, as access to the site was relatively easy and offered dramatic views of active volcanic processes.
The Litli-Hrútur eruption was of great scientific importance, providing valuable insight into magma movement and volcanic behavior on the Reykjanes Peninsula. For visitors, it offered a rare opportunity to safely witness the formation of new land through active volcanism.
